Pingu, by the time you finished all those Mickey Mouse mods, it will be enough for a full body kit & wheels+tires package. I know they are easier to handle financially, but look at it this way: if you plan to install a full body kit & wheels+tires package in the future, don't you want to use them for longer time ? Also, mod price increase every year. So the sooner you do it, the cheaper it will be. For example, when I first bought my Arqray Quad Exhaust few years ago, it costed HK$9K only, but now I believe it is about HK$14K. So, get your wheels & tires NOW !!

Agreed!

Buy the big mods ASAP so you can benefit from lower price AND maximum usability!!!

I know what you mean
for my LCI I will not get a body kit because it cost too much for the mtech unless it will come down to 15000 from 25000
On the market there is not 1 that will fit the LCI need to spend loads of $$$ to get it fited on.
I will get the 19" GTS rims but still a few months to go.
after the 5 more mods then that it and I will start to save on my next car new Z4, just like keith
I have already done 10 mods on the car and its only been 4 months so need to slow down now.
